Baku:The Ministry of Education and Scientific Research has condemned what it describes as deliberate attacks by Saudi forces on Yemen's educational sector. The recent incidents include the targeting of Al-Mu'een School in Al-Maqatirah District, Lahj Governorate, and an attack near a girls' school in Al-Haribah area of Sahar District, Sa'ada Governorate, which resulted in the injury of a female student.
According to Yemen News Agency, the ministry issued a statement strongly denouncing these attacks, characterizing them as part of a systematic campaign against civilians and educational institutions, including students, teachers, and schools. The ministry emphasized that such actions violate international and humanitarian laws and conventions, reflecting what it sees as the Saudi regime's hostility toward the Yemeni people and future generations.
The ministry further expressed its concern over the silence of the international community and the United Nations regarding these attacks. It warned that the lack of accountability for the perpetrators of these acts could encourage further assaults against civilians. The statement called on the international community, as well as UN and human rights organizations, to fulfill their legal and humanitarian responsibilities and work to halt attacks on Yemen's educational sector and civilian infrastructure.
